Getting Started with ACR

Imagine you’ve captured breathtaking landscapes or stunning portraits, but your camera only tells part of the story. That’s where Adobe Camera Raw, or ACR for short, steps in as your photo editing secret weapon. ACR lives within Photoshop, ready to unlock the full potential hidden inside your raw image files. The best part? It edits like a dream, leaving your precious original files untouched!

Exploring the Interface

ACR’s interface is designed for intuitive photo editing. The central area serves as your main image viewer, where you can view your photos in detail. A filmstrip located below the image viewer facilitates browsing and selecting different images within your project. Moving to the right side of the program window, you’ll find a collection of editing tools neatly grouped together. These tools empower you to make adjustments to exposure, white balance, and other fundamental image properties.

Tackle Basic Adjustments

ACR makes editing your photos a breeze. The auto settings help you get started with lighting and color, but this tutorial dives deeper! We’ll teach you creative techniques like texture enhancement and color grading to transform your photos into eye-catching works of art.

  1. The course is fantastic. Unfortunally there were no samples to download. Thank you Aaron for your effort to teach me Photoshop.

    • Hey there! The class includes 20 RAW files to follow along. Simply click on the Download link on the left side of the page. If you have trouble downloading the assets, send us an email to support and our team will do their best to guide you!

  2. I’m pretty familiar with ACR, having used it for several years alongside Photoshop. But of course there’s always something new to learn and Aaron’s presentation introduced several new or better ways to achieve a good edit.

  3. Pweeeew you made something I thought of as ” complicated” be so clear and streamlined. The best 2h spent. I discovered a new way of approaching photo enhancing! Thank you!

  4. Amazing. Never understood camera raw could do so much to add to a photo

  5. Thanks for an excellent series. This did a very good job of explaining the ACR features.

  6. What an enjoyable way to learn something. I find it best to watch each video through first. There’s no waffle. Aaron gets straight to the point and keeps a brisk pace right through. Then I try the exercises, check back with the video if necessary, do more exercises and voilà, I’m a master. (well…you know what I mean😊).

  7. As always, these are tutorials that are packed with information. Presentation is well thought out and quickly paced.

  8. Great course. However, there is one thing that really distracts while watching videos: Aaron’s own video hovering over the program. No instructor does that across the whole course. Aaron’s own video even hides portions of the program and most of the times it’s really irritating. Hope you get my point.

  9. A brilliant tutorial as always .. I always learn something new.

  10. Great tutorial. Covers all essentials from Camera Raw in a logical, got to follow order. Aaron is still one of my favorite teachers for photoshop and lightroom. Great Job

  11. I have been using ACR for many years. The new computational features are great!, and I learned some new tricks and shortcuts from this tutorial. Thanks Aaron
